Without Love

Without Love, There is no distraction, From dissatisfaction And no hope, Of satisfaction, In joining up with a faction, That uses distraction, To lead us into the arms of hate, To seal ones fate, But for the intervention, Of redemption, As a means to our salvation, Should we choose that action, Which always gives Love great satisfaction, In seeing the regeneration, Of a heart that was once blackened, Beyond recognition, But not beyond redemption.

You are welcome Edward. We are all looking for something to distract us from the mundane, and there lies the danger. I believe we all have purpose and to hate is not a purpose intended for any of us. Yet there are times we are brought to it. Fortunately most of us find Love and its hold on us wanes. I hope love joins you by the fireside this year Ed. We down under will be the Barbecue if the weather holds.
